I think everybody is different. We are trying to be ourselves, and other people are trying to be themselves. We all share commonalities with each other, but all of us have different thumbprints. We all have our own unique things.

I don't want everybody to try to sound like something; I think that God has given us each unique talents and passions. The things that come out of me will be different than my neighbor, because I have a totally different set of relationships, totally different set influences and personality traits.

Faith comes from listening to the right stories.

You don't have to be afraid, even death itself does not have power. In Christ, everything is becoming new, everything is different.

Creativity is simply the human brain forming new connections between ideas, and we all are engaged in this process every day. The common idea that there are some people who are creative and some who are not is a myth. On some level, we are all artists. We are all creators.

Pain is as common as skin, we all experience it. It unites us all. Fortunately, that's not the whole story.

Art, along with all work is the ordering of creation toward the intention of the creator.
